Rainbow cake!


I saw this idea online in a few places... so I wouldn't know who to credit as the original. So let's just say : this is not MY idea, it came from someone else.



However, i did MAKE this yesterday!! I LOVE how it turned out! I couldn't wait to cut it open and see the rainbow (colors are not in the right order, i KNOW). I just placed them in the order they came out of the oven. I was so amazed with it that I went around and gave slices to my friends! There are no pieces left today!

For the icing, I used the 7-minute icing recipe that Cindy sent me. It is a bit of a merangue type icing. Upon tasting, Maelie, who usually hates most icing, declared that this was the best icing ever! So thanks Cindy for sending it to us!

  3. It was good! My friends son who is 4 said the layers were all good except for the green LOL He doesn't like green I guess. The cake is actually just a cake mix, so it tasted moist. The icing was this one: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/paula-deen/7-minute-frosting-recipe/index.html
    Not sure why though, it was a bit runny.

    The pieces aren't as huge as you would think... mainly because i used a 7 inch circle pan (disposable from dollar store)
